If you have enough talent and are prepared to work really hard it’s possible, your young enough so that’s an advantage.

@DrGordan3 Do you have any good clubs you could join for live OTB chess. This would help you if you want to progress to a title. Plus they would have contacts for live coaching, lessons and tips.

I don't think that you will be CM anytime soon with that rating tongue.png

Kenneth Rogoff started studying chess at age 13 and he became a USCF master at age 14. He became a GM afterwards. Obviously, you're not Kenneth Rogoff but you can achieve things if you work for them consistently wink.png.

don't lose hope you can achieve it ( in your dreams )

Sure, plenty of people get master titles before 18. And 5 years when you're younger>5 years when you're older. Lots of study and practice and who knows! Good luck with your chess

I have beaten quite a few CMs otb. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but in my humble opinion they don't really play spectacular chess.

do you consider rude people people who say no?

Well your question is something that only you can answer do you have enough will?

Are you ready to study chess all day? you're 1300 and 12, so you need to hook yourself up
